In love with an Introvert (Thomas Brodie- Sangster x Reader) »COMPLETED«

Chapter 18

As I entered the house, my mother bursted me with questions about Thomas. I just told her that Thomas is just a good friend of mine, that's all. "Wag mo kong lokohin, ganyan ko rin tinignan tatay mo noong kasing edad mo lang ako." (Translation: don't fool me, that's how I looked at your father when I was your age.) she stated "What look?" I said confused. She just grinned at me and said, "love! That's how you look at him!" My mum shot back. I just chuckled and shook my head, "whatever you say, mum."

~time skip~

My alarm is blaring all around, as usual. I opened my eyes, but I wanted to close them again, I want to sleep. I turned it off and sleep again, until Y/BFF/N came bursting from my door, "Good morning sunshine!!" She happily greeted. I replied with a groan as I cover my head with a pillow, but of course, she made me get up and get ready.

"Alright! Alright! Just give me 10 minutes and I'll be down." I said to her as I go to the bathroom. I did my routine and eat breakfast.

As I finished, I went back upstairs and brushed my teeth. After three minutes, I get my bag, put my keys, phone, ear buds, and other school things.

I walked downstairs again and put on my shoes. "Ready to go, Y/N?" Y/BFF/N asked, "yeah, just a sec," I answered, "Bye mum, bye dad!" They greeted me goodbye back.

We got out of the house and start our 15 minute walk to school. As we were walking while talking, Y/BFF/N decided to bring up the topic again from yesterday. "Come on, we've talked about this, why are you bringing it up again?" I asked. "Because I can feel Thomas feels the same way." She answered, "How could he even feel the same way? He's popular, and I'm an outcast. He's attractive, and I'm not even close to cute. And no, I'm not being modest here, we aren't meant to be." I explained. She sighed and said, "whatever".

We arrived at the halls of the school, we keep on talking about random things, until some jock around school decided to fool around me. We were walking beside the lockers, the jock was leaning against one of them, the boy decided to trip me but he failed eventually. He began to do his second plan.

I realized it was Lavender's new boyfriend, Boris, he was the one who was making out with Lavender when we were at camp. He began to poke my sides, for no reason. If you don't know, I am not ticklish. I don't mind at all, but he kept on poking me at my sides while we're walking, which made my eyes fill with annoyance. "Lintik na yan!"  (Translation: filipino cuss.. I'm not going to do it again) I'm sorry but it's just pushing my buttons... I faced him and said, "Why don't you bloody bug someone else, eh!?" I said, my voice rising. I began to walk away. "And what if don't want to 'bloody bug someone else'?" He mockingly said.

I turned to face him again, and paced towards him. He still laughing, until he felt my fist smash on him, square on his jaw. I soon began to walk away, heading to class.

I entered the class and sat on my usual desk, Thomas was already there, I sit patiently, waiting for the teacher, but I can feel Thomas smirking at me. "What?" I asked him, he chuckled and said, "Don't think I didn't saw the whole scene back there." "Well that's what happens if some twat messes with me, my friends, or my family." I confidently said, leaning on my chair. "Well, that was bloody brilliant if you ask me." He stated, "and it actually felt good." I added. We both laughed, until Mr. Cooper arrived and started the lesson.

~time skip to lunch~

All five of us sat at our table, eating lunch and talking about random stuff, while i keep sneaking glances at Thomas. Until Hally noticed it, "Take a picture, it will last longer." Hally whispered. My eyes widened and looked down from embarrassment.

I zoned put for a moment. ".. hey Y/N?" Until Dylan snapped me out. "Huh? What?" I said confused. He sighed, "You're zoning out again." He exclaimed. "O-oh I'm sorry, what were you asking again?" I asked. He sighed and asked "Are you going to the prom next week?" "Umm, let me think.." I paused and pretended I'm thinking, "no" I confidently said. "What? Why??" Y/BFF/N chimed in. "Yeah, we're all gonna be there." Thomas added. Because I don't want to go, I'm too
lazy to go. I answered internally,
"I don't have a date, hehe" I begin to do an alibi. "Well.. I can be your date, just go with us next week, please." Thomas suddenly said, I looked at him internally shocked, I can feel heat on my cheeks. "But I-I don't know how to dance." I continue to make an excuse. "Then Thomas will teach you, right Thomas?" Hally said. "Y-yeah." He nervously said, scratching the back of his neck. I can see the rest of them smirking at the corner of my eye. "Umm, I'm still going to say no" I pursed my lips after I say it. "Oh, come on! Let yourself have fun for once!" Dylan exclaimed. "But staying home, reading or watching a movie is fun for me." I whined.  Then they gave me puppy eyes.  I sighed and asked, "do you all really want me to go?" They nodded, their puppy eyes not leaving their faces, by then they added a pout, begging for me to go. I groaned and rolled my eyes at them in defeat. "Fine.. and I'll accept Thomas' offer." There face lit up  in excitement.

The bell rings and we begin to dispose our disposable plates to the trash. Then Thomas whispered something to my ear. "Thanks for being my date." Then walked away.
I can feel my cheeks blush up.

Thomas Brodie frickin' Sangster is my date...
